It's Take Your Child to Work Day! Are You Participating?

Today is Take Your Child to Work Day! The program started 19 years ago when event organizers realized that showing youngsters what adults actually do in the workplace would be a truly "enriching educational experience." Are you participating today?

As I've got no kiddos of my own to speak of, I'm sitting this one out. However, when I was younger, one of my aunts took me to her office a few times to celebrate the unofficial holiday. I remember feeling especially proud of myself after making a bunch of copies.

And when I worked in an office, my boss brought her young daughter into work a few times. She actually turned out to be a fantastic little assistant! She helped me by attaching sticky labels to files and restocked the candy bowls throughout the office.

__If you have children, did you bring them to work today? Or if they're a bit too young, will you have them participate in this event once they get older? If you don't have wee ones of your own, did any of your colleagues bring their kids to the office today? Did you ever tag along with your parents (or aunts, uncles, grandparents, etc) to work? __
